3D Zelda Challenge

THIS IS A SOLO CHALLENGE. IT'S ONLY ME PLAYING THROUGH ALL OF THEM. THIS IS NOT A RACE.

The 3D Zelda Challenge started out as the goal of beating all 5 3D Zelda titles in under 18 hours. Due to obvious improvements in how fast the games can be done that is insanely easy now. It has kind of just become "do it as fast as possible" as the goal is with any speedrun.

Ideally I would like to get sub 14 hours for this but that would be ridiculously insane and I don't think I'll improve enough in SS before then to even come close to being able to get that. Even if I did get good enough at SS (I'd need a 5:10) I would also need a sub 3 TP run, sub 4 TWW, sub 1:30 MM and sub 20 OoT. Realistically I think 14:30-14:40ish should be my goal.

I never actually planned on doing this as I didn't think I would learn any game other than TWW. Just kind of slowly learned the games over the past couple years then decided a little over a month ago I wanted to do it before BotW released.

I'll be doing this March 1st. If for whatever reason I can't I will move it back a day or two instead of forward as BotW releases on the 3rd and if I start on the 2nd, I won't finish until after BotW is released.  I'm not entirely sure what time I'll be starting at but I assume it would be late morning/early afternoon EST.

If you're wondering about the order I'll do the games in, it will be...

Ocarina of Time - 19:30-22:00
Skyward Sword - 5:10:00-5:25:00
Majora's Mask or The Wind Waker (I'm trying to space the long cutscenes out over the second half of this and it seems like MM here is the better option)
Twilight Princess - 3:00:00-3:07:00
Majora's Mask or The Wind Waker - MM 1:30:00-1:35:00 | TWW 3:55:00-4:05:00

Super excited about doing this. :)

I will also probably be doing daily runs/streams to help prep for this. Been going pretty well so far with SS so I'll be incorporating all the other games over the coming weeks starting with OoT either today or tomorrow.
